Day 4: Children's Apparel Buying Office-Nancy

The first thing I did when I got to the office was do the 30/30 discount envelopes so they can be mailed out to the vendors. It took me about an hour do that because there were so many of them. Then the visual manager came in to look at the new toys and to talk to us about how we want them displayed at Neiman Marcus. The toys were pretty cool it was like this special Lego light bright thing that is only exclusive to Neiman Marcus and very few high end toy stores. At the meeting Nancy also wanted room to put in limited edition doll houses. Then after the visual manager left we had lunch. After lunch I observed the office people do their daily work and it was interesting to see how tedious their work is because it is very skew intensive. Then their was a associate survey meeting where they talked about what Neiman Marcus employees liked about their job what they didn't and recommendations they had to make it a better working place. My day wrapped up with the Ralph Lauren representatives calling for a follow up meeting.
